Nichola Sturgeon is an extreme nationalist, she has had an independence dream since she was 15yrs old and is somewhat blinkered (tunnel vision) call it what you want to try live her dream... the problem is as Scotland has to leave the EU to rejoin regardless of our vote or position, if they ever become a self governing country they will have to re-apply to ensure they meet requirements... the unfortunate thing is they have the biggest deficit of any EU member including Greece and would not qualify to join until they met the criteria, she is playing an argument that circumstances have changed and she can get a mandate to go for a second referendum, again she is playing the public with fake news, the original Scottish referendum had it in their own white paper that the case to leave and become independent was because the UK may leave the EU, still she lost, so she is playing the single market card which side steps her ignorance here but during the Brexit debate all the main brexit campaigners did state that leaving the EU would mean leaving the single market, this is her downfall but the Scottish people are not been told the reality here, she has no position to call a new referendum but she is trying to bluff her way into it by getting public support... once they are informed that their biggest deficit in the EU is only not effecting them because of the UK's tax payers propping them up and the crucial fact that the majority of there trade by a very large margin is with the UK then I suspect she will see her dream die but given the strange climate recently, I won't say that's a given, she is playing a massive gamble that has negative odds to try win her dream, I say let them learn there lesson but it would effect us too so I'm for her getting a second kick up the arse.
Obviously this original OP was in feb and now we know that article 50 gets triggered next Wed' so that answers the question now albeit a month and a half later, but we needed to wait to find out.
